John Cena took to Twitter today to confirm our earlier report that he would be returning to SmackDown Live on July 4th.
Bittersweet day today as I begin another night in Atlanta. Such a funny movie but #SDLive @WWE is so close! 7/4 can't get here fast enough!

The event will take place at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona. Cena has been off working American Grit and film projects since his match at WrestleMania 33.
